There are three great loop walks that begin at the Derradda Community Centre about 3.5km (2.2 miles) west of Newport just off the Newport/Mulranny Road (N59). There is a signpost on the right for the community centre which is nestled in the foothills of the Nephin Beg range. Here you overlook beautiful Clew Bay and the local lakes. There are many other trails that start in the surrounding areas too. The Great Western Greenway website is a great resource for information: greenway.ie/burrishoole-loops
